The
Promenade, a Sarovar Premier Hotel,
is a luxury boutique hotel, aptly named, as it overlooks the Bay of
Bengal. It lies along the beautiful Boulevard, and is situated beside
the old lighthouse and opposite the Gandhi statue, in the most
prominent location of Pondicherry. This luxurious 5 Star property has
30 lavish guest rooms and suites. The Promenade is elegantly designed.
While the neoclassical façade blends in with the surrounding French
architecture, the interiors are sleek and modern.
Most of
the rooms overlook the shimmering waters of the Bay of Bengal. The
town’s ancient French quarter, with its colonial villas, leafy parks
and attractive cafes, are just a block away. Pondicherry’s busy
shopping district, a well-known center for handicrafts and fashion
goods, is a ten minute walk away.
Places Of Interest :
The Government Park forms the centre of the town. Colonial buildings,
tracing back to the 18th century, lie along a grid of straight clean
streets. These house French institutions, private homes and
businesses, and the sprawling premises of the famous ‘Sri Aurobindo
Ashram’.
Monuments abound in Pondy. The Aayi Mandapam at the centre of the Park
is the most well-known monument. There is also the French Consulate in
Pondicherry, the French Institute, the Alliance Francais and the Ecole
Francais d'Extrème Orient.
For the
spiritual seekers there is the immensely well known ‘Auroville’, the
international City of Unity. There is also the imposing Gingee Fort,
the holy temple towns of Kanchipuram, Tiruvannamalai and Chidambaram,
the heritage sculptures and magnificent rock temples of Mamallapuram,
and the cool and lush hill stations of Yercaud and Kodaikanal.
